Usually, my own thoughts are the only ones that matter to me. The exception is the rare occasion when I actually create a post or comment asking a question. That’s when I want to know about what you think. Otherwise, buzz off.

That’s a great collection! I’m sure it took a long time to accumulate all of that.


I distinctly remember everyone playing Ocarina of Time in 1998. I didn’t know anyone that was playing Pokemon Red/Blue.


I remember using cassettes, but never vinyl, and I got the magazines when I was a kid, never saw one with a record. By the mid 1980s the magazines started including a floppy disk with all the programs stored on them so you could copy the code from the magazine if you wanted to or you could just grab them from the floppy. I guess it depended on what computer you used. I had commodore computers all through the 80s. It could be a regional difference, too. Maybe in the US in the 80s nobody wanted to use records and preferred tapes and floppies. Anyway, nice article. It was fun and interesting to read!


Thank you for saying it. I did not like this game very much. Maybe the person who threw it away had the same opinion as us. Imagine how much it would be worth if it was actually a good game to play. LOL


I love it because it’s an arts and crafts project and a computer project all packed into one. I definitely want to try this. I think instead of buying something with RetroPie already installed I’d just get a cheapy mini computer and install it myself. You could totally get away with using old hardware from a pawn shop or yard sale, even.


I sucked at that game. That’s why I don’t miss it much. LMAO. You did pretty well. The couple of times I played it back in the day, I had a negative bank.



I’m glad you’re having fun with it! When you get tired of it, there’s a sequel to it called “Dragon’s Revenge.” It’s just as fun as “Devil’s Crush.” So nice to enable people to try retro games they hadn’t played before. I had no idea it was on the TurboGrafx as well as the Sega. Most people understand it was developed for the Sega. Interesting!


Decided to open my Amiga emulator and play one of my favorites from my teenage years. If you've never played this game, you'll be surprised when you do. 4 tables. It feels surprisingly realistic. The ball moves like on a real pinball table. The music is very late 80s early 90s, of course!

No, I meant that my Sega Genesis is long dead. It died years ago, as in it stopped working. But it lasted a long time. It finally bit the dust in 2012 or so. This game is great! I played it nonstop when I was 20. A couple of nights ago for some reason the game popped in my head and I felt like playing it. Today I’ve played it at home and when I’ve been out of the house on my phone.


I’m using the Fusion emulator, if that helps. The Sega Genesis is long dead. RIP.


I wasted my Sega Genesis non-life on this game so many hours you would just call me a loser. The console was my mom’s, so when I went away to college I didn’t have it with me. Every vacation I returned home, I’d just play this and see if I could get a billion points. My mom had the game genie, so she beat it artificially. I refuse the genie. You can find this game anywhere. It was not popular back in the day. It’s one of those cheap games you got at K-Mart for whatever, maybe a couple dollars. It’s definitely like The Adventures of Lolo was. A cheap ass game. Not one of the titles that was overpriced and cool kids arcade category. It was a cheapy game. One of the first of its kind, along with the Lolo games. No sooner it was released, it was in the bargain bin at the cheapy department store.


Satanic Panic in 2023: 27 years later playing "Devil's Crush" and still so far away from 1 billion points. Maybe the 700 Billion Club will come back from the dead and help me.

Yeah, baby. And a computer heavy enough to use as a weapon.


I never watched Futurama, but it’s appropriate. I read the cliff notes.
